Sleep LED misused on 10.2 (iBook G3)

[Olaf Hering]

The iBook G3 come with a white LED that's active if the device sleeps.
On 10.2 during installation you seem to misuse it to signal hard disk
activity. How can I disable it?

Does anyone out there rely on the new blinken light feature?
Otherwise I will just disable it in the kernel configuration file.

I for one won't miss it.

Yes, but it would be nice if you could make it a runtime option.
It is nice to see that there is no HD activity if you run on batteries.
I's like to run such a powersaving mode even if the iBook AC connected.
